ABOUT
About Puppe'n Mucke
Puppe’n Mucke is a Berlin-based music and art collective, founded in 2013 by musician Raving Mad Carlos and visual artist SHOXXX. They play trashy electro pop punk music wearing huge original puppet costumes designed and hand-sewn by SHOXXX.
They mix electro beats and sounds with diverse instruments such as melodica, bongo, keyboards and guitar, often featuring guest singers and artists. The result is a very funny-to-watch-performance of crazy characters playing original enjoyable music.
The current core members of Puppe’n Mucke are: Raving Mad Carlos (Vocal, Keyboard), Luca aka Flusspluss (Guitar), Benten (Vocal) and SHOXXX (Melodica, Vocal)
In August 2022 they released a new album “Puppe’n Mucke” in digital & analog (cassette) format.

“Schön schräg, mitreißend verspielt und absolut ansteckend, wenn’s um gute Laune geht – das ist Puppe’n Mucke!”
– Vera Fischer
“Die Exil Japaner Puppe’n Mucke spielen wie sie selber sagen trashy Electrorock in fantastischen selbstgebauten Ganzkörperkostümen, und probieren gerne für jede Show etwas neues aus. Sie leben den Geist des DIY mit jeder flauschigen Faser ihrer knallbunten Masken und Kostüme.”
– Ask Helmut
“Das japanische Electro-Rock-Quartett Puppe’n Mucke ist ebenfalls bekannt für ihre kreischenden Outfits. Auf der Bühne kleiden sie sich in selbst gebastelten Ganzkörperkostümen, die irgendwo zwischen Teletubbies und Steampunk anzusiedeln sind.”
– TAZ
